Textbook Details:

Wood, J, Zeffane, R, Fromholtz, M, Wiesner, R, Morrison, R R, Factor, A, McKeown, T 2019, Organisational Behavior: Core Concepts and Applications, 5th Australasian edition, Wiley, Milton Qld.

The textbook gives an orientation to the 'received wisdom' on theories, practices and debates about management and organisations. Each week specific chapters are recommended to help candidates get the most out of our face-to-face learning sessions.

A weekly reading list will be provided. This will add to the broader textbook readings, exploring selected key managerial issues and challenges, often drawing on the writings of significant thinkers who have been particularly influential in the field.

Course delivery will be by way of 3-hour interactive seminar classes. It is essential that the nominated readings be completed in preparation for each class – the readings form a shared context for each class and a shared foundation for class discussions. Readings in addition to those supplied in the course folder will be made available via MyUni.  Most assignments will be marked
electronically and returned via MyUni.

Weekly classes are 3 hours long.  You can expect to spend about the same amount of time preparing for each class.  Assignments and exam preparation will demand additional concentrated periods of non-classroom study, on your own or with your allocated student group.  As a rough indication, you could expect to spend in the order of 120 hours of study time to complete the course, of which 36 hours would be in class.

1. Presentation of Assignments

Please retain a copy of all assignments submitted.

Assignments will be submitted electronically  in Microsoft Word format.  Electronic submission will be deemed to carry with it a declaration that the submission is the student’s own work and does not involve plagiarism or collusion.
    
2.  Assignment Guidelines including Referencing Details

A copy of the Postgraduate Programs: Communication Skills Guide will have been given to you at the beginning of your program.  This guide will assist you structure your assignments.  A copy of the guide can also be downloaded from

This publication also provides guidelines on a range of other important communication skills including writing essays and  anagement reports, making oral presentations etc.

In preparing any written piece of assessment for your postgraduate studies it is important to draw on the relevant ‘literature’ to support critical analysis. Also essential is to reference the literature used. Correct referencing is important because it identifies the
source of the ideas and arguments that you present, and sometimes the source of the actual words you use, and helps to avoid the problem of plagiarism. (Further information on plagiarism is provided later in this course outline.)

The Harvard system is widely used in the Business School. Guidelines for the use of this style of referencing can be found in the
Communication Skills Guide.

Further assistance with referencing is available from the Faculty’s Learning Support Advisors. The contact details are
provided on page 6 of the Communication Skills Guide.

3.  Return of Assignments and Feedback

The Lecturer will aim to mark and return assignments electronically to students within two (2) weeks of the due date, with written feedback. 
      
4.  Late Assignment Submission

Students are expected to submit their work by the due date to maintain a fair and equitable system.  All requests for extensions must be emailed to the lecturer in charge of the course before the due date.  Each request will be assessed on its merits.  A late assignment (without prior arrangement) may be penalised by a 5% mark reduction for each day that it is late.

It will also be available on the web.  It is your responsibility to check the timetable and to ensure that you understand the correct date and time of the exam and the location of the exam room. Misunderstanding or misreading the timetable is not valid grounds for the granting of a supplementary exam.  Students must attend at least 80% of classes or they will forgo their right to a supplementary exam on academic grounds.
